Telecinco has been delighted to see that its flagship, Supervivientes, continues to work, and very well. In its first gala, the survival program achieved a 21.7% share and 1,645,000 viewers. A figure that the chain had not touched in a long time.
This puts on the table the audience’s interest in the only space that remains intact since before the board decided to make radical changes to its schedule. And if there is someone who has experienced this premiere like no one else, it has been Jorge Javier Vázquez, who has been very excited about his return to television after half a year away from it.
The 17 new Robinsons were waiting to jump from the helicopter, when the lights on the set turned on to give way to the legendary tune of the program. A new study that recreates the leaves of palm trees and the occasional wave of the sea. After this, the master of ceremonies, Jorge Javier Vázquez, burst into applause.
“Very good evening,” said the presenter just after making a huge bow to the audience. Before continuing speaking, the Catalan could be seen taking a breath so as not to end up crying because of the symbolic weight that his return to the small screen had.
“Good evening and welcome to Survivors 2024. We start off more wild and fearless than ever. You just have to see the spectacular set that we premiere today,” he added. However, at that same moment, she had to stop presenting due to the amount of noise that had formed from everyone present shouting “Jorge, Jorge, Jorge.”
“Thank you very much. If you continue any more, I’ll cry. So…”, said the one from Badalona with a nervous laugh. “I am very happy to be with you again, I have missed you. Thank you very much,” he added, before continuing with the program.
But the emotions didn’t end there. When connecting with Laura Madrueño from Honduras, the presenter also had some nice words for Jorge Javier Vázquez. “Good evening, Jorge, from Honduras. You don’t know how excited I am to greet you again from the keys and you don’t know how excited I am to have you on the other side for another year,” she said. “I’m also very happy, Laura,” added the Catalan.
This return has also been highly applauded by social networks, which have not hesitated to send messages of support to the presenter. And among them are those of his friend María Patiño. “Proud of the reception,” she said. “The ones who have the real power, the ones who decide whether you stay or go, is the public,” she added.
